It was in the late 1960s that Wilson part-nered
with Rheinhold Kirsch, creating
K&W Paving. Then, together with his wife,
Marie, and son, Ron, acting as the board of
directors, Wilson incorporated to become
G.W. Construction Limited in 1970. During
1972-73, K&W was awarded and completed
the largest paving project in Saskatchewan,

paving Highway 5 from Canora to Rama,
utilizing 160,000 tonnes of asphalt and
40,000 tonnes of base. After four years, the
K&W partnership dissolved and each com-pany
continued on their own.
An instrumental piece in the growth and
prosperity of Wilson’s career was the sup-port
and lifelong partnership of his wife
Marie. Married in 1949, Marie handled the
entire farming operation on her own while
Wilson trucked and worked alongside her
husband, shovelling and hauling during the
early trucking years. Throughout their life
together, Marie was exemplary in her sup-port
of her husband, their business, their
family and their community right up until
her passing in 2006.

vast majority of their work comes from the
Saskatchewan Ministry of Highways and
Infrastructure.
To say that G.W. Construction is a fam-ily-
oriented and operated business would
be a definite understatement. With Wilson
at the helm, his sons, Ron and Dean, are
directors but also operate their own
